Super Eagles striker Odense Ighalo predicted a quarter finals AFCON Africa Cup match with South Africa on Wednesday night at the Cairo International Stadium would be a tough match.
Shanghai Shenhua, who currently has three goals, together with Sadio Mané, Cedric Bakambu and Adam Ounas, in the AFCON score race, said on Tuesday.
Former Watford player, however, said he would be happy if he did not score against Bafana Bafana and Gernot Rohr, defeated opponent at the end of the match.
Nigeria is preparing for the game after winning Cameroon 3-2, The AFCON holder, while South Africa has thrown Egypt, host country, competition.
“We have to do our job because this is going to be a tough game. I’m satisfied I give my best and I don’t look at the criticism,” Ighalo was quoted by CAF official website as saying on Tuesday.
“I’m thinking of the team, if I don’t score and we still won I am satisfied. Against Cameroon it was a difficult game and tomorrow [Wednesday] it is going to be another tough one.
“We are ready and we are going to show it tomorrow. This match is totally different from those in the qualifiers. We know this is going to be a difficult game against South Africa, a very fast team but we will make sure to make Nigerians proud.”
